  • When you register for an event, you will be asked to pay with a credit card - online. This is our preferred method of payment. If you cancel before the meeting cancellation date, then you will be reimbursed.
  • The second option is to be invoiced by selecting the "Offline" option instead of a credit card type. You can then pay at the meeting. However, if you do not cancel by the meeting cancellation date, then you will be expected to pay the invoice.
  • Event caterers require us to pay for orders even if you do not show up. Thus, not paying for a registered event comes out of all members' dues payments.
CANCELLATIONS
  • The cancellation deadline is four days before the scheduled event, when event registration closes.
    • Email us if you are unable to attend and have questions about how to handle your payment.
      • With a cancellation before event registration closes, credit card payments can be credited to a member's account for a future event. If you would like a refund, please email us and we will provide a credit card refund. After event registration closes, your food has been ordered and we are obligated to pay our venue. Thus, after event registration closes, we do not offer a refund or credit.
      • Rather than ask for a refund or credit, many members prefer to donate their canceled event payment to a student member to attend in their place. In this case, the earlier you let us know about a cancellation the better. 
  • Please contact us with event registration payment issues.
